White Ribbon Ambassadors of New Zealand
If you discover a White Ribbon Ambassador in New Zealand, post a link in the comments.
If you identify a WRA (White Ribbon Ambassador) and provide evidence, in the form of a link, of their activities or any prejudice comments against men, your contributions will develop this page.
White Ribbon is a politically biased organisation that does not accept or recognise women’s violence.
Ambassadors may see political advantage for themselves in accepting these positions and representing the politics of White Ribbon, but have they asked themselves the question; is ignoring women’s violence beneficial to society?

Also of interest is any former White Ribbon ambassadors and why they might have resigned.
